Guidance note on opportunities to influence the amendment of the Uganda Wildlife Act (2000)

In November 2014, the Government of Uganda is in the process of amending the Wildlife Act, 2000.The revision process provides an opportunity for the Uganda Poverty and Conservation Learning Group (U-PCLG) to raise issues that are important to the group, regarding legislation on wildlife conservation and communities’ livelihoods. Of particular importance are measures to minimise human-wildlife conflict and to improve and increase revenue and benefit sharing with local communities.
